I also do agree, the new S4 is a beast, but he should've at least had the car in S6. My girlfriend has the new DCT S4, I drive it everyday. It's one of the best cars I've ever driven. My M3 should be here at the end of the month so I'll be able to do a fair comparison. What RPM is the M3 at in third gear at 60? I've only had the pleasure of driving the car once and didn't really pay attention to things like that, but to me seems like 2nd gear would've been the better gear to start at...granted I don't know where 2nd gear tops out at. High revving, low torque V8...just makes sense to start out at higher RPM's to me.

Yes, and as I proved in my video, my S6 shifted M5 put bus lengths on an S5 shifted M5...

lol there is no way that a simple section 3 muffler and a pair of intakes did that, in fact. If you look at race 3, the two cars are virtually dead even until we shift at which point S6 shows how much quicker it is than S5
